//So activity has not been the most here (what else is new eh?) Due to some health issues I've had to take a lot of time for myself and focus on getting better.
On top of that, I've also been busy with making my cosplay for Final Fantasy XIV Fanfest Berlin, which is next month.| I'm making my Warrior of Light, in the current glamour outfit and dyes, which is quite a challenge, seeing as I haven't made anything cosplay-like since the plague hit us.
Also signed up for entering the cosplay stage show, which has 90 spots, so I'll hear if I make the cut sometime this month. If not, then at least I tried. Still gonna finish this project and enjoy myself there and also my first time in Berlin too.
I'll try to have a bit more activity here when I have the energy for it, but with the current heat waves, my health and this cosplay project, most of my attention and energy is spent.
time: is there any time period / era my muse has lived through that they wish they could go back to?
Immortal Asks - Accepting -
Not really...
Though Vladimir has lived through many ages and era's. Seen the rise and fall of various kingdoms, dynasties and their rulers. But he prefers to live in the moment, in the now. And experience it all while taking it all in.
Though he does often regret not having taken part in certain societies, like Helia's. Hindsight is always a perfect 20/20, but the few years he managed to make Helia his home, before his relative decided to throw a temper tantrum and plunge the archipelago into everlasting unliving hell, he wished he could have experienced more. Learned more.
So maybe? Perhaps, he would want to see what he missed out on? But at the same time, he feels every step on the way made him into what he is now. And man, does he like himself a lot.
Landmark
Immortal asks - Accepting -
Landmark: Was my muse around while an important landmark was being built? what do they remember about that time?
Vladimir has been around for over a millennia. Well from before the founding of Demacia and Noxus, and the latter's start of the modern Runeterran timeline.
Though societies like Shurima, Camavor, Targon, Ixtal and Helia were already flourishing when he was born. He did experience the rise of the Immortal Bastion in Noxus and the founding of the Demacian kingdom.
He remembers how the lands were before the rise of the architecture that would take their position on the regional horizons. How the Ur-Noxian lands were controlled by various warring barbarian tribes, eventually getting dominated partially by the Iron Revenant.
How, after the Rune Wars and Ruination of Helia, those that feared the magicks that almost destroyed their world, caused migrating tribes of humans to travel West. Eventually settling down amongst magick-absorbing flora and founding their domain of 'justice'.
He remembers it vividly, or at least the parts he cares to remember.
//And I have gotten the itch again to remake my Vayne cosplay...
Gods dangit Riot, can you not for 5 seconds?! I already got a project I need to finish for Final Fantasy XIV Fanfest next month in Berlin!
Language was curious, allowing for many observations if one paid attention. The mage had an ear for it, a trait stemming just as much from how many she had under her belt by now as from any innate talent. Listening and paying attention was the quickest way to learn; she needed to learn quickly when somewhere new.
"Time has a habit of flying by quicker than expected, or at least I have always felt that it did." Elise tried to keep track of it, but it was difficult when travelling. Someone should invent a standardized, multiversal calendar. "What brought you here? Socialite politics, or does Noxus have an artistic scene I have yet to discover?" She could not imagine it did. The people here seemed very practical-minded, though, of course, a national spirit would always spawn art.
"It is an indulgence, yes. Sadly, one I enjoy too often, but there are worse vices than a sweet tooth in my experience." His emphasis did not go unnoticed, even if Elise was unsure what he meant by it. There were rumours about what she did here; it was inevitable when she did not mind her patients more. But magic was not forbidden here, so it had felt silly to operate in secrecy, especially with how it hindered her productivity. Still, it might explain why he was here. It would not be the first time a socialite came to investigate exotic rumours in their boredom. Though there was that lingering...sense. The mage could not explain it, and it scratched at her mind.
"Thankfully, honey has its benefits too. It is antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, and you can actually treat wounds with it should you, for some reason, only have honey at hand." The healer doubted he was interested in this information, but she felt more comfortable in familiar medical talk than in subtle games of wordplay and emphasis. If he was only here to gawk at the latest rumours, it would be the fastest way to see him out the door.
"I can give you a small bag home if you like the tea? The sailor who gave it to me gave me more than I expected." A translation error on her part. Elise had suggested a handful of tea as payment when he insisted on repaying her after she healed his broken hand. She had received his hand's weight in tea.
"Ah, surely you are too busy for that? Not to mention, I cannot exactly offer you anything in return for such kindness."
"It would be my pleasure, my dear. And you offering a portion of this wonderful blend would be more than I could ever ask for!"
"You are also very correct about the honey, my dear. Though such luxuries are often wasted on the simple-minded populace in these lands. They often consider a wrapping of bandages accompanied by a stitch here and there to be enough." He chuckled at his own words describing his fellow Noxians, followed by another sip of the pleasantly-tasting brew. "Not to mention that honey is harder to come by, with most of the product to come from importing from across borders, with how harsh our climate can be for flora to bloom freely."
If he were to allow himself to show it, he would display genuine surprise at the knowledge of the woman on something so seemingly 'mundane'. But medical knowledge, no matter how insignificant was like a rare occurrence here. Though not extremely rare, the ones that cared not for far outnumbered those that did. And those that would make it a profession were even rarer amongst them.
"Off course, there are a lucky few in this empire that can permit themselves a more 'exquisite' healing arts as well. One that has nested its' way into even the military of this fine nation in offensive, defensive and even medical employment. Which, I suppose, is also a reason for most to shy away from other ways of keeping themselves healthy." The nobleman stopped for a few seconds, to take another sip as he kept his eyes on the woman, trying to spy any form or reaction to the mystery he proclaimed just now.
"Have you ever heard of the ancient noble art of hemomancy? Or blood magic, as it is more commonly known as." Something in his eyes had shifted, as a crimson glean flashed over those pale irises. Something almost akin to a predatory hunger, an excitement even.
for the immortals…

An amused rise of his brow accompanied his amused smirk, with the large sack being thrown at his feet. A slight tilt of his head upon seeing the hair sticking out of the opening.
"I hope you won't mind me checking the validity of their claim, my dear? Can't have anyone spouting lies like that, after all."
Leaning over the body, he extended his index finger and let the sharp metallic reaver glide over the fabric, the unnaturally sharp edge cutting open the sack from top to bottom. The torn flaps curling outwards, crimson stains revealing more of the corpse inside. His digits wrapping around their face, turning it so Vladimir had a more proper look at their face.
"Ah yes... I vaguely recall this one. I had forgotten where I had sent him off to. Thank you for returning them to me."
Pale eyes wandered the wounds and bruises on the body, crude but effective. He could appreciate such work, even if it were 'less refined' than his own methods, as he would call it.
"Would you believe, mere curiosity being my sole and only reason?" he said, looking up at the noblewoman. Off course that was not the entire gist of things. There was a certain stake from the Black Rose in having eyes on Demacia. But Vladimir too ever held a close eye on their neighbors on the other side of the Nokmirch planes, especially since his venture centuries ago where he battled the petricide goliath of the newborn kingdom.
//Yoooo that Locke cinematic has no right to go this hard!
The fact my angy bat lady Shauna is also in that is just another cherry on top <3
//You know what's great about getting older? You get more comfortable about caring less about your own birthday as the years go by...
//I decided to treat myself to a chair upgrade.
I’ve had my previous on for 6 or 7 years now, maybe longer… and it was starting to give me lower back pains and aching knees.
Opted to get a more expensive chair that I’ve been eyeing for a few years now: the Secretlab Titan EVO Final Fantasy XIV edition.
Let me tell you I was not disappointed! She’s quite heavy at 35kg (77lbs.) to carry up 4 flights of stairs to my flat. Assembly was very swift and easy, especially with the instructions, which they printed on posterboard with the other side being an Endwalker artpiece?! Fuck yes that is going on my wall.
I haven’t moved from the chair since finishing assembly and I have no had an aching muscle or bone. The seat is very comfy and sturdy, with enough space to move my butt in, and no hard edges on the seat either. I love the built-in lumbar support too.
The only downside is that with the magnetic role patches I was to receive with the chair (tank, healer, dps), mine came without the tank one and double healer patches. Easy fix though, by contacting their customer support and getting a replacement patch ordered and shipped to me.
I’m gonna enjoy this chair for a long time for sure.
“You must be Lord Vladimir.”
"And you..."
The hemomancer paused for a second, taking in the visage presented to him. He knew who his guest was, not intimately or personally in the sleightest. But word travels far and wide, even from the petricide filled Demacia to the imperial homes of Noxus.
Oh yes, he knew very well who she was. Enough to bring a smirk to his features, in anticipation.
"A very unexpected guest, Night Hunter. To what do I owe this visit? Business? Or pleasure...?
📕 + Bundle
For every “📕” I get I’ll post a fact about my muse (Or 3 when 'bundled') - Accepting
Despite his, more aggressive demeanor when it comes to his magic, he is very knowledgeable about the medical purposes of it as well. He just simply chooses not to utilize his magic like that very often...
Despite his nonchalant and often-extravagant behaviour, he remains keen and observant of his surroundings and those around him. He will notice the smallest details, take note and find ways to have them work in his favour one way or another
Though not a widely known fact, Vladimir is a proficient musician. Specifically the violin and piano. As a young boy he was tutored in the instruments, something that stuck with him throughout the ages.
THOSE COWARDS AT RIOT REMOVED VLAD FROM VAYNE'S 'RELATED' LIST!
I mean... I 'get' it, but I don't agree with it!
At least they still have her shoot his manchild diva ass in the ability breakdown video's...
📕 + Bundle <(◕ᴗ◕✿)
For every “📕” I get I’ll post a fact about my muse (Of 3 when 'bundled') - Accepting
Vladimir can transform (parts of) his body through his hemomancy and related-to-it carnomancy. While he mostly uses it aesthetically, he can use it functionally, like regrowing limbs or turning hands to claws
Due to him having absorbed Darkin blood, when he struck down his master, he shares more than just their magical craft. While not true to the fallen Ascended, he attained a form similar to them. While more of a corrupted human-Darkin hybrid, it does not lack in prowess and strength. Though he extremely rarely has used it (he extremely loathes the state), it is his absolute last resort ability
Though what the common believe is, he is not a vampire. He does 'consume' blood and flesh, but not in the vampiric way. Through his blood magic he partakes in the nutrients, minerals and supplements from plasma to upkeep his longevity and enhanced state. Doesn't help that his longer canines (family trait), white hair and red eyes (hemomancy) contribute to the rumours
Tumblr pillow fight
Reblog to hit the person you reblogged this from with a pillow
can I get … two 📕 bundles? o(｀ω´ )o
For every “📕” I get I’ll post a fact about my muse (Of 3 when 'bundled') - Accepting
Two bundles? Someone's being greedy aren't they? But I won't mind for our dear Egg <3
Vladimir has traveled a lot in his lifetime and still on occasion ventures for unspecified amounts of time across the lands
Due to his traveling he has learned just about any formal language that is spoken. On top of the forgotten and dead languages of the past, like Ur-Nox or the Ancient Shuriman and Camavoran tongues.
When not traveling he tends to either spend a lot of time in his personal library; reading, or finding a personal solace in his self-kept gardens
Surprisingly to anyone that even remotely knows him (save for one or two people close to him) he has a certain fondness for animals. Even going as far as having two drakehounds (magically enhanced with hemomancy to increase their longevity), a small flock of crimson pigeons and a few crimson bloodletters (With both species being created by himself)
While magically versed, Vladimir is also a proficient swordsman and able to utilise more weaponry as well. Examples being: flails, maces, axes, spears and halberds. Most of this stems from his mortal years, being tutored as Prince of Camavor and also while under servitude of his Darkin master
While known to partake in a healthy (and sometimes unhealthy) amount of wine, Vladimir will not get drunk from any amount of alcohol consumed. He has learned to subconsciously use his hemomancy to let his body filter and break down the substance before it can have an effect on him. He can choose to not do so and then experience the effects of alcohol, although that never happens (or so he says)
